Why are we doing this?
In the spring of 1996, the
founders of Education World recognized the need for a Web site that would make
the Internet easier for educators to use. They wanted to create a home for
educators on the Internet, a place where teachers could gather and share ideas.
They wanted to create a complete online resource where educators could start
each day to find the lesson plans and research materials they were looking for.
The result is Education
World, the Educator's Best Friend, a resource that includes
- a search engine for educational Web sites only, a
place where educators can find information without searching the entire
Internet;
- original content, including lesson plans,
practical information for educators, information on how to integrate
technology in the classroom, and articles written by education experts;
- site reviews;
- daily features and columns;
- teacher and principal profiles;
- Wire Side Chats with the important names in
education;
- employment listings.
Education World's
goal is to make it easy for educators to integrate the Internet into the
classroom. With 98 percent of the nation's
public schools connected to the Internet, the need for a complete online
educational guide is evident.
Education World is
designed to be that resource for educators.
The Education World
team works hard to produce this FREE resource for educators. In order to
keep the site free for all visitors, Education World is funded by corporate
sponsors and advertisers. We hope you find this site useful.
